(I) increasing the temperature B. (D) removing some of the reactants C. (I) adding a catalyst D. (D) placing the reaction flask in ice E. (I) increasing the concentration of a reactant General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 11 Learning Check Indicate the effect of each factor listed on the rate of the following reaction as I) increases, D) decreases, or N) none: 2CO(g) + O2(g) 2CO2 (g) A. raising the temperature B. removing O2 C. adding a catalyst D. lowering the temperature General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 12 Solution Indicate the effect of each factor listed on the rate of the following reaction as I) increases, D) decreases, or N) none: 2CO(g) + O2(g) 2CO2 (g) A. (I) raising the temperature B. (D)adding O2 C. (I) adding a catalyst D. (D) lowering the temperature General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.
